Black Forest Tradition meets up with the world of today

The traditions of the Black Forest are now visible in the modern forms of today. In our newly built SteigenHaus the shapes and natural materials traditionally used in building houses in the Black Forest have been interpreted in a modern way. The most interesting feature of the whole building is perhaps the impressive glass roof, which is made out of 360 glass elements.

Inside the building: we have focused on quality, traditional forms and local crafts. The use of high-quality materials and good quality manufacture, and, most important of all, the fact that the goods here on sale are „Made in Germany“ build the foundations of our offer, which varies from “Coeur de Lion” jewellery, wristwatches such as Junkers and Abeler & Söhne, home decorations, hand-made knives, “Steiff” teddy bears and original cuckoo clocks and long-case clocks, all presented in a modern building built of wood and glass.
